AI Security Breaches, Vibe Coding Secrets Leak, and OpenAI's $500B Week
AI Security Disasters This Week 🔥 Half a trillion in AI valuations. Eight thousand children's records nicked. Sudo is broken. Everything is on fire and we're shipping vibes. Right. Where to start with this week of AI security breaches and vibe coding gone wrong. A ransomware gang called Radiant (love the branding, lads) hacked a nursery chain called Kido and walked off with personal data on 8,000 children. Children. Not enterprise accounts. Not crypto wallets. Actual kids in actual nurseries. I don't usually get properly miffed about security news because frankly if you're still leaving RDP open to the internet you deserve what's coming. But targeting nurseries? That's a new kind of grim. Meanwhile: OpenAI hit a $500 billion valuation. Half. A. Trillion. We're living in a timeline where AI companies are worth more than most countries' GDP and a nursery chain can't keep toddler data safe. Cool. This is fine. The Hits Keep Coming 💀 It wasn't just the nursery hack. This week was a proper security shambles from top to bottom. Google Ads serving trojans. You search for something legitimate, click an ad at the top of Google, and congratulations, you've just installed malware. Google taking money to distribute malware is chef's kiss levels of ironic. The ad platform that prints money can't vet what it's printing. Fake invoices spreading RATs. Remote Access Trojans shipped via invoice PDFs. Because apparently we still haven't sorted out "don't open random attachments" after twenty-odd years of trying. The sudo exploit (CVE-2025-32463) got added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list. Actively exploited. In the wild. Right now. Sudo. The thing that literally gates root access on every Linux box you've ever touched. If that doesn't make you sweat a bit, you're not paying attention. Tile tracking devices flagged as a stalking risk. The thing you bought to find your keys can apparently be weaponised to find you . Reassuring. UK Co-Op attack costs hit $275 million. Drago
